[Galaxy S I9000 General] MGA2009:
Trying to fix the 3G problem I messed everything and now I can't go back to JVQ Ginbergread ROM!

I am doing everything like before, but still not working.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] tsb4k:
Thanks to you two I have my phone booting gingerbread now, but I think I screwed something up. I used a 32gb sd and I seem to have reversed the partitions. I created a 2gb ext4 and the rest fat32 but now the phone shows 2gb usb storage and 30gb for the system..

Does the order of the partitions matter when you create them?

My other problems so far are

-No wifi (says Error when I try to enable it)

-Boots slowly (3mins or so)
[Galaxy S I9000 General] MGA2009:
Glad you got your phone "semi" fixed...

I don't know if the order of the partitions matter or not.

Also, the problems you got did not happened to me, booting was normal and I've got wifi.

My phone is a i9000m yours too? What rom are you using? kernel?

Now I can flash 2.3 anymore... It's on a bootloop. It shows the first image with Talondev or Darkcore customs boot image (depending on what kernel I use) and then it reboots... if I keep the usb connected the BATTERY Charging image is shown and the restarts.

I certaingly can boot back to Froyo, but no Gingerbread, not anymore... Could you please tell me the exact steps you took to flash it?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] tsb4k:
Yeah it is a i9000m (bell vibrant)

Don't know if I can reproduce all the steps, I had pdanet running the first time I tried to flash anything and it made odin hang which caused more problems. Was stuck with a boot loop and no recovery (only download mode) for a long time.

When it started "working", I had flashed JVR and DarkCore kernel and it went into recovery. This was 3 file flash + pit + repartition checked (might have been my mistake). After that I did the adb push of vold.fstab and rebooted. It took a long time to do anything after that. I left it on overnight and this morning it was in the initial phone setup.

Oh and somewhere in there I did the superoneclick root.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] darkgas:
Consultation vold.fastboot

Hello! I followed all the steps and reliving my I9000t !!!!!!

Now I can take pictures and save files to the external sd 1.83 Gb (actually internal to change the file vold.fstab)

But for some reason will not let me install applications, with the error "no space".

Neither from the market or manually.

Another problem is that when I lose then restart the mobile configurations Google, Facebook, etc ... as if it had never created and the language is English, notebooks I have it configured with the Spanish language.

Can you help me with this problem?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] amanadriano:
hi darkgas,

i remember i got the same issue, but that was when i installed Froyo. i didn't get this error when following sponkmonke's post.

did you partition your external sd card to 2 partitions?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] ysr84:
Hi Guys excellent thread.... I am for the very first time after the failure of sd card am able to Boot into Froyo... sheuuu... Finally!!!

I am trying other Roms like JM8 and JVVT but no luck at all....

Also, how to create partitions on sdcard... I think windows doesnt allow that...

Any help is apprecaited.......
[Galaxy S I9000 General] phzi:
Return your phone to Samsung... Don't try to work around an obvious hardware failure.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] ysr84:
Its not covered in warranty
[Galaxy S I9000 General] sarvesh29:
I have been able to get Froyo running without the sdcard swap.

Then i followed sponkemonke procedures.

After a lot of flashing, XXJVT and Talon dev.

How do i get shell root? Super one click keeps on hanging.

Hope you guys can help me get a new life to this dead phone.

Thanks.

UPDATE:

when i do that:

run some adb shell, then su and mount /etc doing this:

C:\adb shell

su

#

# mount -o remount,rw /sdcard /etc

i get an error about get applet.

:s
[Galaxy S I9000 General] SaHiLzZ:
I am having the same problem... can't boot to Gingerbread with method listed above. However I am able to get into froyo, but can't seem to be able to get the mount correct..
[Galaxy S I9000 General] amanadriano:
sponkemonke, my external sd card is recognized as mmcblk1 p1/p2,

and i was trying to redo this your procedures and its not working anymore.

any ideas? thanks.

What build are you using? and what Radio version you have?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] lildaan:
Im used alot of androids they all crash same way. one of them i liked was from toughless ore something like that. And how can i check my radio ? cause after Wm i didnt change. Tnx for ur reaction
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] dark_prince:
Get a radio version 1.65 atleast. Force closes often result due to DATA on Slow SD Card or Certainly due to older radio version
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] lildaan:
ok, and but i live in the netherlands. Im not sure wich one i shoud pick, And how i need to install this? Tanx very much for your help
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] dark_prince:
Have you installed android on NAND?

You just need to get a Radio rom which is 1.65 or higher (search for Kaiser Radio thread, it has all versions).

Rename the RUU_Signed.nbh to KAISIMG.NBH

Put in SD Card

Flash through bootloader (camera + poweron and then press Power button when asked)

[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aaronf8:
I am pretty sure but just want to check, if i upgrade from cm6 to cm7 will i lose all data on my phone? Also if i get to cm7 and do updates will those also erase data?
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mokurex:
1. Don't post questions in this section

2. You can upgrade from cm6 to cm7 without wiping, and will retain all your data. However if you encounter problems or force close, you might have to, but I've seen a lot of people upgrade without wiping and it went fine.

3. "If i get to cm7 and do updates will those also erase data" I have no idea what you're asking.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rusty!:
I think he means will flashing CM7 nightly builds over the top of each other cause data loss? In which case, no.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RogerPodacter:
i didnt see him mention nightlies anywhere. but to answer his question, you can just do a regular upgrade without losing any data. i would do a nand backup before just in case, and if you DO have any problems you can restore it.

but i had no problems upgrading cyanogen rom. as long as you stay within the same ROM, and move from an older to newer version, its ok. but you can upgrade from cyan 2.2 to stock 2.3, for example. full wipe is needed there.
[Atrix 4G General] topshelfusa:
OK I have the tethering working fine without the laptop dock.

Once webtop launched it checks for at&t tethering plan and will not connect to the previous trick.

Anybody got a solution for me? Please?
[Atrix 4G General] Ririal:
There's like 40 threads about this, but what I do that seems to work ok is:

1) Create the custom APN using the settings provided on these forums (I don't have a link, just search, they're in about 20 different threads), activate it, reboot the phone.

2) When you launch webtop, it will hang on "Verifying AT&T account status."

3) Open up the APN settings, switch to any of the default APNs, then switch back to your custom one. In 10-15 seconds the popup should go away and you can use firefox without issue.

I have to do this maybe once a day. There's likely a timeout if you're not constantly using it where you have to follow this procedure again.
[Atrix 4G General] topshelfusa:
sorry if I missed it in the search, there were so many on just the regular APN trick that the one I was looking for got lost in the clutter.

Thanks for the tip, I will give it a try.
[Atrix 4G General] thechump:
When I plug my Atrix into a device (computer, car, etc) via USB, the SD card auto-mounts. I would like to be able to adjust when it mounts but the auto-mount isn't a huge problem. My issue is that when I unplug the phone from a device the SD card doesn't automatically remount.

Is there a way to set up the SD card to automatically remount? Is there a manual way to remount besides restarting the phone?
[Atrix 4G General] thechump:
I'm going to move this over to the Q&A forums sorry for posting here by mistake.

[Omnia 7 General] Looter:
Hello ,

You are my last hope before sending my phone to the service center.

The phone is an Omnia 7 (i8700) orange uk.

The phone was unlocked using an unlocked code service.

The problem is that the device stopped recognized any sim since I did a factory reset.

I have tried 3 different sim and i receive invalid sim or no sim error.

I flashed the phone to the latest firmware from samfirmware.com(I8700XXJK1) but no result.

I have tried the *#7465625# code and i get the following :

SIM/USIM Lock : disabled

Network Lock : disabled

Network Subset Lock : disabled

Service Provider Lock : Disabled

Corporate Lock : Disabled

The phone was working with my local Vodafone SIM till the factory reset.

Is there anything i can try?

Please Help...
[Omnia 7 General] Casey_boy:
When does the error appear?

You could try using the Network profile app? Or maybe a reflash?

Casey
[Omnia 7 General] Looter:
Hi ,

When i open the phone i get the following error :

SIM error

The SIM card is missing ord invalid. You can still make emergency calls if your service provider supports it.

I updated Network Profile App from marketplace but Vodafone Greece or any other Greek carrier are not included.

I really dont understand. My Vodafone GR SIM was working normally until the reset.

I have also tried to SIM from different carriers with the same result.

What should i try?

Please help!
[Omnia 7 General] Looter:
Do you beliave that it is a hardware or a software problem?
[Omnia 7 General] Casey_boy:
Since you've flashed the I8700XXJK1 firmware, have you tried hard resetting? Just try that. Also, you could always try a full re-flash.

From the OP's postings it would seem that it's a software problem - else it was very unfortunate timing for a hardware failure.
[Omnia 7 General] omer1982:
I assume the sim card slot malfunctioned due to some hardware issue. It will not detect any sim card and will keep on generating errors. Re-flashing won't help either. It is better to return the phone in warranty and do not take any chances. There are good chances that the device will be replaced.

Regards.
[Omnia 7 General] Looter:
The last hope that i have is to flash the device with the new firmware that is going to be released in the next days.

Is there any code from "##634#" menu that i can try to check if there is any lock in the phone?
[Omnia 7 General] pezley:
Oddly, mine has just done the same thing. All of a sudden its telling me there is no Sim installed. Have tried multiple sims with no joy. Would like to format the device and start from scratch but i will lose all my contacts and sms's ...... brilliant
[Omnia 7 General] Doz007:
I'm having the same problem, it just won't accept a Vodafone UK sim. I've just done a full re-flash following the instructions on winrumors.com about restoring a bricked Omnia 7.

Still no joy, just the same error message mentioned in the OP. :(

Any ideas what else to try?
[Omnia 7 General] Looter:
Hello guys.

It seems that I am not alone with the SIM error problem

Are there any experts in the forum to help us?

Are there any steps to follow to ensure that the problem is software or hardware?

Is there any hope that the new software will fix our devices?

[Omnia 7 General] Doz007:
Hi Looter,

Are you also on Vodafone UK? My Omnia still works with other networks, its just Voda which gives me the error message. I've tried three different working Vodafone sims now and they all give the same message. :(

Worryingly its the same error message that you get if you boot up the phone with no sim at all installed!

We need help please XDA guru's! :)
[Omnia 7 General] Looter:
Hi ,

I bought my Omnia 7 from Ebay.

It was Orange UK branded and sim locked.

I purchased the unlocked code and I was able to use my local greek SIM after unlocking it.

Since i did a factory restore , the phone does not recognize any of the local SIM that i have tried returning the invalid SIM error message.

I have tried Vodafone Greece , Cosmote Greece and Wind Hellas SIM cards with the same result.
[Omnia 7 General] Doz007:
Have you tried another unlock solution, like the Omnia 7 one available on FastGSM?

Maybe that will do the trick?
[Omnia 7 General] Looter:
I have tried the *#7465625# code and i get the following :

SIM/USIM Lock : disabled

Network Lock : disabled

Network Subset Lock : disabled

Service Provider Lock : Disabled

Corporate Lock : Disabled

The device shows that there is no SIM lock.

Can someone confirm if a second cody apply will fix the issue?

I think when the phone is SIM locked it returns a different error message and not "invalid sim" , isn't it?

Where are the forum gurus? :)
[Omnia 7 General] Doz007:
My device is showing the simlock as disabled also. I only get the error message when trying to use a Vodafone UK sim though. All other sim cards do not produce that error and instead they boot straight to the home screen. :confused:

I'm really tempted to try another unlock because nothing else has worked so this seems like the last option.
[Omnia 7 General] Looter:
So when you use SIM cards different than Vodafone UK you don't receive the error message and you are able to make calls, correct?

I wish i had an orange uk SIM to try out.

Let's hope that someone with greater knowledge will help us soon... :)
[Omnia 7 General] Doz007:
Yeah that's correct, in theory. The other sim cards are old Pay & Go sims that have been cut off due to not being used for around 8 years! But they boot straight to the home screen without the error message, just don't get any signal.

I've tried re-unlocking the phone as well and can confirm it was a waste of $20. :mad:
[Omnia 7 General] Leyjee:
Samsung Focus

Hi, I bought my Focus off a dealer on eBay. It seems the problem is that once the device has been unlocked through services like fastGSM, when the phone is given a hard reset changes the setting applied. Any help would be greatly appreciated!!!!:)
[Omnia 7 General] Looter:
So , as far as i understand , the problem is software and not hardware.

Doz007 mentioned that his phone was still not able to recognize the different SIMS after applying the unlock code for second time.

You verified that the same problem exists in Focus after a hard reset so this is not a Omnia 7 only issue.

Please verify that the lock menu of your phone is in disabled status (check my previous post).

I am really surprised that none has any knowledge to help us with this issue.

Tons of service codes have been posted for our devices but we need some direct help in order to save our phones.
[Omnia 7 General] Leyjee:
Yes I can do the ##634# or whatever it is and it will say that everything is unlocked. Unfortunately I dont think I can return my phone for another one because Samaung USA wont supply to New Zealand. Maybe the SIM reader needs to replaced?? Please any Gurus please help!!!
[Omnia 7 General] Looter:
I don't believe that the sim reader should be replaced.

Please check the feedback from member Doz007.

It's pretty obvious that this problem appears in Samsung windows phone 7 devices which were sim unlocked using unlock code after a hard reset.

So it is software and not a hardware issue!

Maybe a moderator should move the thread to the general windows phone 7 section as it appears that no developers are looking in this section.
[Omnia 7 General] simdao:
I got same issue suddenly after changing the SIM card, previously I assume it is a software bugs on my unlocked T-Mobile phone.

After that i tried several method such as hard-reset and reload the ROM but no luck, all is unsuccessfully.

Finally i dismantle my phone and found the lower 3 pins on SIM SLOT was loose. After I fix the pins everything works fine.
[Omnia 7 General] Boxfresh:
Hi simdao,

I have the same problem as you did. How did you get the back cover of your phone? Do I have to remove the screws first?

Thanks in advance.
[Omnia 7 General] dazkill:
Solution !

I got the same problem last week

and I'm not good as Simdao to fix this myself so I buy the replacement part on eBay from the seller freeter01600

And I've just fix the problem, it's easy to repair.

You should try this Boxfresh
[Omnia 7 General] Looter:
Please give us some instructions in order to dismantle the phone.

HEEELP!!!
[Omnia 7 General] Boxfresh:
I think the first step is to remove the top part of the phone where the headphone and USB jack go. Then you must remove 3 little screws.

That's as far as I got as I'm waiting for a small screwdriver which I ordered online to finish of the job.
[Omnia 7 General] Lemillion:
Hi Guys.....

Seem like all have same problem as i have..

Same problem wth me for long time and i try to fix go to the shop and no result i was thinking to buy from fastgsm is any one try it?

and what if i open then mobile and see the sim jack all pins all normal!!
[Omnia 7 General] Boxfresh:
I repaired mine a few days ago by removing the back cover.

The problem was that one of the pins were slightly bent an it just needed pulled out a bit.

Working perfectly again.
[Omnia 7 General] Lemillion:
yupppiiii :p:p

Now its workinh fine

[Atrix 4G Themes and Apps] [DT]:
Has anybody installed any fonts from the Market yet? Or used one of the alternative options that shuffle TTF files over the stock fonts?

I had a couple of fonts on my Captivate, and I recall it had an actual font preferences, but that may have been from one of the various non-OEM ROMs I flashed (I don't even remember the phone with stock ROM :D ).

I thought I might actually buy a couple this time, vs. using freeware options, but I wanted to have a decent option for switching type faces, plus I was curious if the higher screen PPI would make the fonts too small.

Looking at probably a HelvNue FlipFont, maybe Copperplate (and few others).
[Focus General] onesikpuppy:
I currently have an Atrix but I've been having many problems with it. I just came from a captivate that I really enjoyed but had grown bored with.

What I want to know is if anyone has experience with both the Focus and Captivate. If you came from one to the other are you happy with the change? I think a lot of my problem with the captivate was that I was just bored with android. WP7 looks very nice and it would almost be a relief to not feel the need to customize /root /upgrade /flash a new ROM every other day.

Any Android to WP7 converts who regret the change?
